• RQFTCIMM11 Game 6, Rounds 4,6: the body and liqueurs

    From Mark Brader@21:1/5 to All on Sun Sep 26 01:28:36 2021
    These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2011-06-20,
    and should be interpreted accordingly. All questions were written
    by members of the Misplaced Modifiers, but have been reformatted
    and may have been retyped and/or edited by me. I will reveal the
    correct answers in about 3 days.

    For further information, including an explanation of the """ notation
    that may appear in these rounds, see my 2021-07-20 companion posting
    on "Reposted Questions from the Canadian Inquisition (RQFTCI*)".


    * Game 6, Round 4 - Science - the Human Body, Colloquially

    Seems like every part of the body and every bodily function,
    condition, and secretion has both a fancy Greek or Latin name and
    the down-to-earth, descriptive English name we use in conversation.
    Trachea and windpipe, to give an example. In these questions,
    we'll give you the fancy name, you give us the colloquial term.

    Questions #1-5 refer to parts of the body.

    1. Ulnar nerve.
    2. Laryngeal prominence.
    3. Deciduous teeth.
    4. Sudoriferous glands.
    5. Coccyx ["KOK-six"].

    Questions #6-10 refer to physical conditions.

    6. Rhinorrhea.
    7. Periorbital hematoma.
    8. Alopecia.
    9. Medial tibial stress syndrome.
    10. Pes planus.
